KJW all the way. I've had mine for over a year and a half. Lost it in the desert, dropped it, gotten it dirty... Yet it still functions like the day I bought it. Spare parts are easy to find, and it's an absolutely beautiful gun. Even more reliable than KWA, in my opinion. The model I have is the KP07, check it out on ASGI.

On a different Off-topic note, anyone know where i could get a pair of Night sights that would fit on it?
It looks like it might fit real-steel XD/XDm sights, but don't spend money on just my guess.

Also, back to the original topic, I've got a KWA P226, and it's a lifesaver. I've only had it for a month or so, but it's always worked when I need it to. We'll see how it works in the summer, the last owner told me it had some quirks when it got warm. I've heard P226's are hit-and-miss.

I had a KWA P226 and aside from how awesome it looks and how awesome it feels I just didn't seem so impressed with it. I've fired other KWA pistols and liked them all but for some reason the 226 just didn't impress me too much.

I just lol'd so hard reading the responses! You guys are hilarious! :D

Side note: KWA P226 is a good shooter.
So is the CZ75, though rarer

Basically, KWA and TM make the most reliable pistols. I own a KWA USP and it's only had two major malfunctions in about 3 years of moderate use: a leaky mag seal, and loosening of the safety/decocker detent.

Thanks for the info guys, but how bad can these we tech pistols really be?

I think 4Chan said it best-..

"Imagine a giant wiener flying towards your mouth, and theres nothing you can do about it. And you're like "oh man, im gonna have to suck this thing", and you brace yourself to do so. But then, at the last moment, it changes trajectory and hits you in the eye. You think to yourself "well, at least i got that outta the way', but then the giant wiener rears back and stabs you in the eye again, and again, and again. Eventually, the giant wiener is penetrating your grey-matter, and you begin to lose control of your motor skills. Thats when the giant wiener slaps you across the cheek, causing you to fall out of your chair. Unable to move and at your most vulnerable, the giant wiener finally lodges itself in your anus, where it sits unconfortably for 4, maybe 5 hours. Thats what using a WE tech pistol is like."

     But in all seriousness, KWA and KJW are some of your best bets on the GBB market.

No fail here, just win.
Who uses an analogy like that for an AIRSOFT GUN?
